Mission Statement 

The Purpose of this Utah Mission
"Pray...also for me, that utterance may be given me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim
 the mystery of the Gospel... that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak" (Eph 6:18-20).

The Church needs your support and prayers here in Utah. If you are already purchasing Catholic Materials online why not make the Utah Mission your purchasing entrance? All proceeds generated by this Mission go back into evangelization materials that are mailed out to Utah residents. Included in each mailing is the Invitation to the 2000- year- old Catholic Mass, the Pillar of Fire- Pillar of Faith booklet and the Outreach brochure from Catholic Answers. You can read the contents by clicking on the images.  When you make your first purchase through this Utah Mission let us know by e-mailing us at utahmission@aol.com. We will send you the same outreach  materials that we send to Utah residents.

In the promise of Baptism each of us received the gift of the Holy Spirit, the gift of faith. This faith is to be shared with others and not kept just for ourselves. This sharing of our faith is not an option but rather a responsibility as Catholics. In this way all of us participate in the missionary vocation of the Church, within the one body of Christ. You may not be called to evangelize as others but you can evangelize by supporting those that are called. One cannot work without the other.

We know this: one could purchase and read every Catholic book ever written and not get out of them what one single Mass can give. The Catholic Mass can truly pierce a heart. It is our Mission to bring lapsed Catholics back to the Mass and non Catholics to the Mass for the very first time -- in essence home to God -- even if only for a moment, one moment that may change a life forever.

There is nothing in this world more touching than witnessing another's eyes opened to the immensity of what we as Catholics have been given in Christ... in which we live the great gift of the Eucharist, forgiveness, and reconciliation daily. There is nothing in this world more healing than the sacraments of the church, those seven wonders that bring us closer to our Lord Jesus, in which we find His true unyielding peace in good times as well as times of suffering. When I was eight, I lost a mother to suicide because she did not feel “good” enough to continue living. The gift we have to pass on to others is the same gift of which she and so many others were/are in urgent need... the peace, the cure that only Christ can give, when we discover his healing nature, his unconditional love. 

”Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. But how shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how can they believe unless they have heard of Him? And how can they hear unless there is someone to preach? And how can men preach unless they are sent?”
(Romans 10: 13-15a)

"I wish to invite the Church to renew her missionary commitment... For missionary activity renews the Church, revitalizes faith and Christian identity... Faith is strengthened when it is given to others!... God is opening before the Church the horizons of a humanity more fully prepared for the sowing of the Gospel... No believer in Christ, no institution of the Church can avoid this supreme duty: To proclaim Christ to all peoples."
